PRIMAL 2 VS. PRIMAL 3 OVERVIEW

Balanced Weight Distribution
The increased overall outsole width ensures that your body weight is spread out more evenly, reducing the pressure points on your feet. This even weight distribution enhances comfort during various activities. For those with lower arches and flat feet, you will find that this is a big improvement. But for those with high arches, you may feel very little, to no difference.
Enhanced Outsole
The Primal 3 is made with our Widest Fit Last, just like the Primal 2. The difference is that we developed a new outsole on the Primal 3 with a wider footprint for more ground contact underneath the foot.
Higher Sidewalls
When examining the Lems Primal 3 from a lateral view, you may notice a visual difference — the sidewalls now wrap up higher on the sides. This is a deliberate design choice aimed at improving both fit and lateral stability. The higher side walls provide a snugger fit around the contours of your feet, cradling them comfortably.
Zero-Drop Platform
Just like the Primal 2, the Primal 3 is built on a zero-drop platform which keeps your heel and toes level, mimicking your natural barefoot position on a flat surface.

100% WATERPROOF UPPER

ZERO-DROP

I am loving LEMS shoes!
I went to Austin on vacation and walked a bunch in these shoes and they did great! I already had two pairs of LEMS Boulder Summit that I alternate wearing at work as a park ranger. They were just so amazingly comfortable that I decided to try another of their shoes and they have not disappointed. They seem a little different from the Boulder Summits which are all leather but still very and secure. After using the LEMS shoes my feet don't hurt like they used to. I have a foot injury from when I was in the army and it mostly stopped bothering me after switching to these. I especially appreciate the wider toe box.

big ol kicks
I wore these on a Hike to Five Peaks at Hanging Rock and they were great. I thought they were kinda clownish being that the box was so big and I was tripping over myself but I really just needed to pull the laces tighter all the way up the shoe. prob could use half size smaller. Will buy another pair of Lems one of these days.

Superlative!
Exceptional pair of hiking boots. Possibly the best traction I’ve had on a boot, after using them in varied terrains - slick, clay mud; sand; boulders; talus; scree; snow and ice; grassy slopes. Have had no issues with slipping, whether on flat or sloped ground, and despite the boots being so light, the ankle support has been great.
The waterproofing has also worked wonderfully, and yet the boots still breathe really well. No problem wearing them all day with how light and breathable they are.
Also, really pleased with how good they look with pants, jeans, or shorts (in the Mercury Rising color)!
